Brutalities were brought back for Mortal Kombat: Shaolin Monks in 2005. It was dropped after Mortal Kombat Trilogy and not featured in Mortal Kombat 4. In some versions, the opponent's bones and limbs would simply fly off the screen.īecause of its extreme difficulty to perform and unspectacular results, the Brutality was unpopular. Even if successful, the Brutality had what was considered a lackluster payoff - the opponent would disappear in an explosion of blood and an unrealistic amount of bones and limbs covering most of the screen. To do the Brutality, one had to perform a long combo by quickly pressing an eleven button combination. Upon defeating an opponent, “Finish Him” or “Finish Her” would appear on the screen, and the player would then be able to perform a Fatality. In doing one step further, Mortal Kombat’s deadly combo-finisher actually killed an opponent, making them explode in a fantastic, bloody fashion.īrutalities were, however, very difficult to perform.

Mortal Kombat, to possibly outrival their adversaries, incorporated their own form of a deadly combo, known as Brutalities.

In the game, there was a finishing move known as an Ultra Combo in which a fighter brutalized an opponent with a tremendous combo of over twenty hits. They were introduced following the release of Killer Instinct in 1994. These combos appeared in Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3 and Mortal Kombat Trilogy before they were dropped, alongside the other forms of finishing moves when Mortal Kombat 4 was released. A Brutality allowed a player to pull off an extraordinarily long and rapid combo to kill an opponent.
